Ukrainian forces launched their cross-border incursion into Russiaās Kursk Region in the early hours of Tuesday. The leadership in Kiev has said one of the objectives of the assault is to sow āfearā into the hearts of the Russian population, in order to lower support for their government and eke out a stronger negotiating position.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has described the attack as a ālarge-scale provocation,ā and has accused Kiev of conducting āindiscriminate strikesā on civilians, residential buildings, and ambulances. Multiple videos circulating online in the past two days appear to show Ukrainian troops firing on civilian cars.
The Russian Defense Ministry has estimated that Kievās assault was carried out by forces numbering up to a thousand, supported by tanks and artillery. The chief of the Russian General Staff, Valery Gerasimov, reported on Wednesday that Kievās incursion had been halted by the Russian military, and that Ukraine had suffered heavy losses."
